Also, try the Wyoming Chop House in downtown Cody.

We took the Bighorn mountains from buffalo to Cody
I was a bit worried about the truck from yesterday

It performed great
I think the pass was just shy of 10,000'

I don't think this truck has ever seen elevation like that before
It spent it's whole life in North Carolina

[Chevyland]

Man was it remote

But the sky has been beautiful
The last couple days

Weather on its way

[Chevyland]

In Cody went to gun museum

And also learned about
Buffalo bill

Just want to add my compliments for your great photography. I've really enjoyed the journey so far, just wish I was doing the same thing.

Big sky, open country, lay of the land. Now when someone asks, "Where's the remote", you can tell them you went there.

[flashed]

Great trip ,thanks for taking us along .

[BronzeGMC]

Quonset Huts.. Love them. cheap very useful.

From Cody
We headed for Yellowstone
About an hour before we got there
Brad thought he saw a giant boulder
On the side of the road
Nope, it was a bison having lunch

We got this picture
Not knowing if we would see any other
Wildlife

Even got it framed

[Chevyland]

But there was plenty

[Chevyland]

These guys belonged to a heard probably
Greater than 300
They were all crossing the road
We caught the tail end of them

Sat in traffic for over 1/2 hour

[Chevyland]

They would even help you
Pump gas
If
Necessary

[Chevyland]

On Cody we down loaded an ap

GyPSy Guide (check out the spelling)

This thing was unbelievable
Hooked it up to blue tooth on that EU Roll speaker
On our dash

It was like having your own tour guide
Everywhere in the park

If you are going to national parks
Maybe even other destinations, I'm not sure

It will be the best $5 bucks you spend....

Upper falls

Lower Falls

The Grand Canyon

Ha, I know exactly where that last pic was taken! There's a small road that winds around there and I was going to get a pic of my car there but I missed the location so I backed up a bit...... Right into a big rock buried in the ground! Didn't hurt the car, but did slightly bend the right rear wheel.

Thanks for the thread. Looking at your pictures of the the needles it reminded me of trip me and and the wife took out our GoldWing motorcycle. Instead of touring around on the Wing we jumped on a Day Tour Bus and the bus ( Greyhound size) actually drove through the needle like you did with your truck. Beautiful country around the Black Hills.

This is one of the most enjoyable threads.

[Chevyland]

Thanks guys. It is so cool that people keep responding
And have been to so many of these places

We are getting ready to enter the mountains
Going to see some friends in Darby

Thought we were going to go up to
Coeur d'alene
But now thinking of taking the back way to
Lewiston

And then hitting up Kennewick Wa

Is any body listening going to the

Dierks Bentley concert on FRIDAY?

Here is where we are now

Your shots are as good as any of them! Consider adding to that thread so others can see your talent.

What'd ya think
Should I take it

It's a good deal

And it matches the truck

Can anyone give me the info
On
1/2 ton trucks
Towing capacity

[LongBox]

Gives new meaning to the old saying "it followed me home!"

here ya go... not your year, but a ballpark figure. Think of the savings on motel rooms, and you could fix vittles too. Harvest an occasional critter along the way for the stew pot.

Haven't lots of us dreamed of doing this. Vicarious living. I've been curious(since you left point of origin) to see how engine handles altitude changes and effect on MPG IF you've monitored that. Have you encountered any rain yet? I haven't read in a few days.
